Welcome!

Welcome to registration for the Palyul Summer Retreat. We look forward to seeing you this summer! 

Here are some helpful hints for completing the form. For full information about the retreat, visit http://retreat.palyul.org.

Each person (child, spouse, etc.) needs a form

We need each and every person coming to retreat to have a form associated with their registration. The booking is not like a hotel, but rather like a university. We also do this in order to make sure we can keep people safe in case of an emergency.

Room booking is not "Real-time"

Please note that our system does not reserve rooms in real-time. Room assignments will still need to be made manually by the office. Although we can request rooms and make reservations, your first choice may not be available. Therefore, please indicate a second choice when making your reservation.

Questions?

Our helpful office volunteer staff are waiting to answer any questions. Please email them at retreat@palyul.org and they’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

Looking forward to seeing you on retreat!

Please note that this form is specifically for the summer retreat. If you're interested in other retreats, please visit http://retreat.palyul.org and select the appropriate retreat from the options available.

In order to hold our retreat and because most centers are following this policy, we are requiring all retreatants to do as follows:

• We strongly prefer you are vaccinated but are not mandating it this year.
• Must wear a mask when approaching the teachers during empowerments and when getting food in the dining hall or working in the kitchen. Also must agree to wear a mask according to any other mandates made during the retreat.
• We are requiring a COVID test before retreat:
  • Must present evidence of a negative COVID test taken within 48 hours of arriving at retreat. 
  • Please bring a home test kit with you as we will ask for a test to be performed on arrival if you have not taken a test at home. We will also have test kits for sale at the center.
• Must consent to having temperature taken on arrival and respond to our health questionaire.
• Must sign release waiver that includes our COVID release agreement.
• Must agree to make quarantine on-site and make immediate arrangements to depart retreat should a COVID test return a positive result. (A refund for unused days will be available).

Accommodation options.

All accommodations house two people only. A very limited number of family rooms are available; please inquire at 607-656-9640.

North Dorm - dormitory closest to the temple; rooms closer to the temple are reserved for those with mobility challenges

East Dorm - more remote, quieter facility

South Dorm - largest facility, with two floors; rooms 31 and 32 are reserved for ordained women or disabled retreatants.

All accommodations have access to communal bath areas.

Food is served family-style in the dining hall and is included in the retreat fee. We cannot accommodate special diets, but refrigerators and microwave are available for retreatant use.

Confirmation of rooms to be handled separately

Full-time retreatants may request their room location and, depending on receipt of registration and availability, will be prioritized for assignment.

Two-week retreatants may request a room location as second priority and will be informed if available.

Retreatants of one-week or less (or weekend visitors) will be assigned to remaining rooms on a first-come-first-served basis.

Please note we will try our best to accommodate your request according to availability. Additionally, we attempt to place returning retreatants in room assignments they have previously requested when they apply for retreat early (we become unable to do so as we get closer to retreat time).

You must have a roommate to book a shared tent.

We are limiting shared tents this year to those who already have a roommate. Please do not book a shared tent if you do not already have a roommate planned. White tents will be available as priority for tent shares. Thank you!
